What MP does
MP Cleaning (legal entity MP Srl) is an Italian B2B distributor and provider of professional cleaning, hygiene, sanitization, and ambient fragrance solutions, headquartered in Concorezzo (Monza e Brianza). The company sells detergents, degreasers, sanitizers and biocides, cleaning equipment (carts, mops, microfiber, scrubber-dryers, vacuums), paper and disposable products, air purification systems based on UVC lamps and controlled ozone emission, professional ambient fragrance systems (essential-oil deoprofumatori, stick diffusers, soy candles), floor treatment products, pest control, and specialty items. It also provides HACCP consulting, employee training, and technical assistance. The offering is organized under proprietary brands including EEVO (a codified cleaning-performance methodology centered on the human expert), SPRING AIR (ambient fragrance), MAVERIK, ECOL (Ecolabel-aligned), and DEEP.
The company operates a hybrid go-to-market model combining a direct consultative sales force in Italy, a network of 100+ domestic partners, and international distributors in Switzerland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary. It holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, HACCP, EU Ecolabel, and Plastica Seconda Vita certifications, which it uses to differentiate in regulated verticals. Founded by Alfonso Pirovano in 1973 in Monza as an automotive-detergent business, the company was re-established in its current form by Massimo Pirovano around 2003 and pivoted into a multi-vertical professional cleaning solutions provider. Revenue is generated through one-time product sales across product categories and through professional services (HACCP consulting, training, technical assistance); pricing is not publicly disclosed and quotes are provided on a custom basis.
The customer base spans Carwash & Car Care, Ho.Re.Ca. & Facilities, Food Industry, Healthcare & Sanitation, and Schools/Public Entities, with 233 active clients/partners and a cumulative 7,000 references processed over its 50+ year history. Marketing is concentrated in trade fair participation (ISSA Pulire, ISSA INTERCLEAN Amsterdam), an EU/Regione Lombardia-funded internationalization program, and a website plus social channels with ~10,000 followers. The company is privately held by the Pirovano family, with no institutional investors, parent company, or public listing disclosed.
